I took today off work without pay to take my wife, 12yo daughter and one of her friends to a semi-local theme park where one of my son's work was having a picnic and rides at reduced rates for family...

The damned car broke down an hour away and my son had to come rescue the female folk and procede to the park without me! I was able to get the car to limp home but here I sit....bumed out!

Oh yea the tickets were a present from my son to me for my birthday last month...he is bumed out too!
